I think this is a beautiful resort and while I've only been here 3 times prior, this time we actually stayed for the first time (long weekend) in August.
PROS:
Considering the extremely hot weather outside, everything inside was a perfect cool temperature.
The water in the pool also perfect, not too hot not too cold.
The bartenders at the pool bar were super friendly.
Even though it was crowded, there seemed to be plenty of room for everyone at the pool area.
We ate in several different restaurants and only one had great Service: The Golf Course restaurant!
The room was large, clean and comfortable. We were in the #2 tower on the Resort side.
We had a fun at the Blondie more concert.
We saw Don Friesen at the comedy club and he was hysterical and the seating was very roomy instead of crammed in like sardines in other comedy clubs. 2 drinks minimum.
I liked that over the whole weekend no one was too drunk, rowdy, or obnoxious.. made for a fun as well as relaxing visit.
CONS:
There are definitely NOT enough video poker machines.. just one small section that is very smokey.
The buffet was by far one of the worst I've ever been to and was $30+..They had beef ribs that were all completely burnt to a crisp, soggy crab legs so soft it was difficult to remove the crab meat because we couldn't even crack the shells. Mediocre service.
